The Yankees have an infield log jam. However, the logjam consists of players either too talented or expensive to move. While Gleyber Torres is technically on the trade block, the Yankees will need his offense in their lineup. With a 115 wRC+ and 24 HRs, Torres is one of the few capable offensive 2B with power in the league, and while Anthony Volpe’s impressed early on, there’s no guarantee his bat will be MLB-ready. It’s clear that the odd man out in the infield is Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who, while not a terrible player, certainly doesn’t have the ceiling the other infielders have.
